[Solved] xorg xfce xkblayout: getting ALT_R to work

After 8 hours on installing and tuning Archlinux for swedish friends of mine, I give up on the following problem:
In XY, the keyboard works perfect with the locale se_SE and keymap sv-latin1
But under xfce, I can't get the Alt_R button working. Even with http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … d_Settings
I can't get to the core of the problem. This guy seems to have had a similar problem, but the text is in swedish:
http://bbs.linux.se/viewtopic.php?p=178 … 79211b5e5e
My Keyboard is a Logitech Y-SQ33 (SK-2910)
Tried the following from xorg.config
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Logitech Y-SQ33"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "logiik"
Option "XkbLayout" "se"
Option "XkbVariant" "qwerty"
EndSection
Also tried out with XkbLayout pc105 and logiinkse. Nothing works
xev says my ALT_R is
keycode 113 (keysym 0xffea, Alt_R)
How hard can it be to set up a swedish keyboard?
The edit is changing the subject to include "solved"

Ok, I'm back.
My typo was not the cause of it not working. Thank you wyvern, for giving me the lv3 instead of compose!!!
This is how it finally works out:
Option "XkbLayout" "se"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
Option "XkbOptions" "lv3:ralt_switch"
I completed the wiki article http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … g_properly for this swedish problem.
The complete block for the sake of completion (and boy would I have been glad for this when looking for how to set up the swedish keyboard):
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Logitech Y-SQ33"
Driver "keyboard"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "logiik"
Option "XkbLayout" "se"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
Option "XkbOptions" "lv3:ralt_switch"
EndSection
So, the status of this could be changed to "solved".

[solved] graphlab / graphlabapi, anyone get this to work?

edit3: I'm marking this as solved, as it basically seems to work for me for now. I decided not to upload the packages to the AUR because graphlab is broken with the current version of openmpi and depends on a libjson library that I'm not at all familiar with and nobody else here seems to use. If these aren't good reasons not to submit the packages I'll happily submit and maintain them. I'll maintain the PKGBUILDs on github for now https://github.com/sveitser/pkgbuilds .
I'm trying to use graphlabapi ( www.graphlab.org ) on arch linux. I'm planning on using this quite a bit in the future so my goal is to create an AUR package eventually. I managed to build it successfully but the compiled application does not seem to work properly. I posted an issue on their google code page ( http://code.google.com/p/graphlabapi/is … tail?id=41 ), but was wondering if anyone here managed to get it to work.
If anyone wants to give it a shot, AFAIK the following will install the necessary pacman dependencies:
pacman -S --needed apache-ant jdk7-openjdk mercurial cmake openmpi
edit: I also put a symlink named "python" to "python2" in my PATH before "/usr/bin" because otherwise the build system would detect python3 and the build failed at some point. Probably not a proper workaround but I think it seems to do the job for now.
edit2: Found a way to tell cmake to choose python2. See below.
Build instructions are basically:
hg clone https://code.google.com/p/graphlabapi/
cd graphlabapi
./configure -D PYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python2
cd release # or "cd debug" for quicker build using less RAM
make -j 4
The release build needs a lot of memory so they suggest not to use more concurrent make threads than the system memory in GB. I also run into the same issue if I build the debug build. The build takes a long time due to all the dependencies that will be installed locally. At the moment they don't seem to check for an existing boost installation on the "default" branch so boost will be installed locally even if it is available system wide.
The tcmalloc dependency fails to build with glibc 2.16 so I patch the file
deps/tcmalloc/src/libtcmalloc/src/base/linuxthreads.cc
with respect to the graphlabapi base directory with
196c196
< static void SignalHandler(int signum, siginfo_t *si, void *data) {
> static void SignalHandler(int signum, siginfo *si, void *data) {
as suggested here http://code.google.com/p/gperftools/iss … akechanges and then run make again
make -j 4
Upon which the build succeeds. However when I try to run the examples or tests I mostly get no output and the programs just hang.
I've been struggling quite a bit and any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

edit: Unsetting CXXFLAGS before executing "make" seems to let the build complete. Not sure if that's a good idea but I 'think' cmake sets it appropriately anyway.
After successfully compiling the package I created a PKGBUILD that I thought should work but it aborts on error during the "make" step. When I run "make" from a terminal in the corresponding directory the compilation succeeds.
The PKGBUILD (also here https://github.com/sveitser/pkgbuilds/t … raphlab-hg ) is

[SOLVED] I can't get virtual hosts working. What's wrong?

What I've decided to do is try to set up each domain name in the user folder to whom it belongs (for example: /home/username/somedomain.com/htdocs). I can't get it to work though. I keep getting an error saying that there's no index file (although there is) or that the location isn't readable (although it is). I'm trying to make it so that if the domain name matches with a virtual host section in httpd-vhosts.conf that a specific DocumentRoot will be loaded for that domain, etc. But, if the domain name points to my server but doesn't match, then I want the default location to work. I can't seem to make this work.
This is my http.conf:

So, for example, I want it to be so that if I visit http://45.117.5.40 that it'll show the stuff ftom /srv/http/default/htdocs but if the domain name matches somedomain.com then I want the server to show the content from /home/normaluser/somedomain.com/htdocs.
What currently happens is that if I visit http://45.117.5.40 or somedomain.com, they both show the same content from /srv/http/default/htdocs.
If I comment out the first VirtualHost section, then everything stops working and I see the default "Access forbidden!" message.
What am I doing wrong?

I fixed it. In case any newbs come across this, I had to add a new <Directory> section for the DocumentRoot of the virtual host. Simply adding the VirtualHost entry in the vhosts file isn't enough.
For example, for the "somedomain.com" vhost in the example above to work, I added this to http.conf:
#This must match with the same location as DocumentRoot in httpd-vhost.conf.
<Directory "/home/normaluser/somedomain.com/htdocs">
#Put whatever directives you want in here
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Let me know if you need any clarification.

[solved] xorg 1.6 - dual-monitor not working any more

I switched to arch64 and with it came the new xorg 1.6. Now X won't start with the configuaration I used before and I can't figure out what to do about it.
I want to use two monitors (laptop + external) with an Intel X4500 HD und xf86-video-intel. I found out, that it doesn't like the virtual screen I defined. If I remove that line everything works fine for the laptop-monitor. With the virtual screen defined I get an error in xorg.0.log

Btw: I tried x86-video-intel-legacy. But then X didn't even start

Ok, I fixed it. Just added
Option "AccelMethod" "UXA"
Option "Legacy3D" "False"
to my device-section in xorg.conf. EXA produces the error above.
Maybe I'm looking at the wrong point, but could someone give me a hint where I can learn more about UXA/EXA. The problem seems somehow solved, but I'd like to learn more about this and would like to understand what the problem was. Right now I don't even know what makes the difference between UXA and EXA It just works.
And somehow google doesn't make it a lot clearer for me right now...

[SOLVED] I can't get rar to work.

Hi all,
I've installed rar and followed the wiki and I still can't extract. I just get "bash: rar: command not found"
Can anyone provide any assistance?
Last edited by guriinii (2010-09-24 11:47:13)

How exactly did you install rar?
'unrar' package provides a means of extracting rar archives, but it's not the same as the 'rar' package (which enables you to both create and extract rar archives). The former is available in the official repos, the latter isn't.
You can add
[archstuff]
# AUR's most voted packages
Server = http://archstuff.vs169092.vserver.de/i686
to your pacman.conf, run 'pacman -Syy' and 'pacman -S rar' to install 'rar' package.
Alternatively, you can call unrar instead of rar in the extract script.
If it still doesn't work, post again.

Does anybody else a a VGN-T150P or any of these problems? I'm not very good a writing/decoding xorg.conf files so if anybody could help it would be greatly appreciated

I download xf86-video-fbdev just for fun before I saw your post, I didn't do anything as far as I could see.
I commented these lines out:
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/Type1"
Load "record"
Load "type1"
B, I didn't install any fonts but now I installed a buch of random fonts:
pacman -S ttf-ms-fonts ttf-cheapskate artwiz-fonts xorg-fonts-75dpi xorg-fonts-100dpi
and did some of what the X.org configuration wiki said:
fc-cache -fv
/usr/bin/fc-cache
/usr/bin/mkfontscale
/usr/bin/mkfontdir
ln -s /usr/share/fonts/encodings/encodings.dir encodings.dir
Then this I changed this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "intel"
VendorName "All"
BoardName "All"
EndSection
EDIT, halfway through this post I realized I type in biagio's code wrong, I re-typed it and now my X works!

[SOLVED] Can't get Steam to work, VirtualBox installation

Hello!
I'm having problems with getting Steam to work on my Arch Linux installation. I'm new to Linux so I'll just give you a prehistory & console output. I installed the distro on a virtual machine created in VirtualBox, installed xorg & KDE, I didn't install any video drivers because this is what wiki says:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VirtualBox#Installation_steps_for_Arch_Linux_guests wrote:Note: You do not need to also install a specific video driver in the guest system. Install the Guest Additions instead.
So I installed "virtualbox-guest-utils" package, created a file /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf with the following contents:
vboxguest
vboxsf
vboxvideo
Then I executed
sudo systemctl enable vboxservice
and rebooted the system. After the reboot I got the shared clipboard feature working => VBox Guest Additions seemed to work. Then I installed "steam" package, launched it via the terminal and waited for it to download it's updated. After Steam downloaded everything, I tried to launch it once again via terminal and got this:

and a GUI window saying "OpenGL GLX extension not supported by display". I tried to find a solution on the internet but they all mentioned installing Nvidia drivers. And VirtualBox GPU != Nvidia GPU.
Is there any way to solve this? Steam is working on my Fedora-VBox (this is the distro our lecturer uses as an example to teach us about Linux) installation out of the box.
EDIT: forgot to mention that system is x86_64, multilib in enabled, 3D acceleration in VM settings is enabled.

Fixed the issue by replacing nvidia-libgl with mesa-libgl & lib32-mesa-libgl.

VMware-server: Any way to get this to work? Kernel issues! SOLVED

Hi all,
I am trying to get VMware server installed, but am having a lot of difficulty.
According to multiple sources of information, I am told I need to install vmware-server-modules first.
When I try to install, yaourt gives the following error: error: target not found: kernel26>=2.6.32.
When I try to install vmware-server, yaourt gives the error error: target not found: kernel26>=2.6.29.
FYI:
$ uname -r
3.2.5-1-ARCH
The Wiki deals with VMware Player and Workstation, but not Server. There is a forum/aur information relating to installing Server which is quite old (mostly 2010, some 2011), however given I am running an up-to-date kernel I seem to be hitting a dead end. Is there anyone who knows how to get this working?
I have seen:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=101982
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6182
I have tried VirtualBox in the past but have had issues getting the networking properly configured, so VMware remains my preference. If there are other decent virtualisation options I am willing to listen.
Your assistance would be much appreciated!

Thank you for your posts. My own research and your comments has convinced me that VMware Server is not the right way forward nowadays.
EXSi:
I have an unused box (Dell GX620 usff) which seems like it would be suitable to run EXSi and 2-3 VMs, but no more due to RAM limits of 4GB on the mobo. I THINK its 64-bit, but not 100% sure - knowing this is an EXSi requirement for recent versions is somewhat annoying. Also, from what I understand, there is no native Linux control application (vSphere is Windows only, right?), which makes VMware feel entirely like the wrong choice for me.
Citrix XenServer:
This looks promising - does anyone use this?
VirtualBox:
I hear your comments ... maybe its time to do some reading on this. Seems like I'll only get it to work if I take the time to do it right. As usual, so no suprises there Given that it will be easier to experiment on my usual system than have to spend time on a new box, I think I'll investigate this first.
Please feel free to leave further comments on this subject - I'm still interested in your experiences. It will however, be marked as SOLVED, as VMware-server is out.

[SOLVED] Xorg and keyboard not working after upgrade.

Hi guys,
after a `# pacman -Syyu` I got Xorg not starting and keyboard not working: I am unable to do anything.
I'm posting here pacman's log that I got by booting an Ubuntu Live CD: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/7517806
Any hint?
How do you recover a system once it's gone like this? Many thanks in advance.

I wouldn't necessarily call this [SOLVED]. At best I would probably mention that you found a workaround. The addition of '(downgrade)' likely makes it fine, but just FYI for future threads. There are two reasons for this. One, others who find this thread are likely to dig into it thinking there is a real solution, and two, if you mark it as [Solved] it might generate less attention, lessening the chances of you actually being helped to a real solution.
Just my 1.46¢
You're right, problem wasn't actually solved. In fact, yesterday I upgraded the whole system again and the same problem showed up, but I got it fixed.
Same scenario: after a boot (shorter than usual), what I had was a tty, but I noticed something that I hadn't noticed the last time: the prompt said "Arch Linux 3.11.[?]".
The kernel version was supposed to be 3.12.[?] so I started investigating and after several attempts, this is how I got the system working again:
1. Chrooted into the system
2. Wiped /boot
3. Re-installed grub
4. Re-installed linux kernel
5. Re-created grub.cfg
6. ???
7. Profit
I'm pretty sure that what originated the problem wasn't a "kernel issue" as I pointed out in my previous post, but it was an incorrect installation of grub: in fact, the grub prompt never showed up before yesterday, the system used to boot straight, ignoring the 5 seconds timeout.

[SOLVED] Help, can't get my X-Fi to work :(

Hi all. I recently decided to try out Arch. I'm currently running Gentoo on my boxes, but I set up arch on a new drive and I'm giving it a go. However, the time I have saved by not having to compile anything or troubleshoot emerge issues has now been completely taken up by trying to get my sound working. Works fine in Gentoo, so I have made sure to compare kernel configurations and they both seem the same in relevant areas. ALSA is enabled, and OSS is disabled The XFI driver is built-in, and no other drivers are enabled:

[root@server2k linux]#
I've been all over the net and I have seen people mention similar problems with the ctxfi driver. But no solutions that have worked for me. The physical card is seen:
[root@server2k linux]# lspci | grep -i creative
00:0e.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB X-Fi
however alsa doesn't see it:
[root@server2k linux]# cat /proc/asound/cards
--- no soundcards ---
I tend to not use modules for stuff I know I need (e.g. sound card drivers...) , but the module is there..in the kernel. I was trying with a separate module before, and I made that lsmod told me it was loaded. However nothing seems to make a difference. I'm pretty sure alsa is configured correctly because I was seeing my onboard sound before I disabled it. I also took out all of the alsa-related stuff I had put in rc.conf and modules.conf because nothing seemed to make a difference. it was all related to getting the ctxfi crd to show up as card0 to override the onboard, but since it's not even being detected that seems sort of pointless right now.
If anyone has any ideas of what to try next I would really appreciate it. These are the versions I am running:
kernel 2.6.34.1
alsa-lib-1.0.23-1
alsa-utils-1.0.23-2
Oh, the otehr weird part is if I look in the dmesg output, the driver claims that "Something's wrong!!!" Yeah...really useful. In the source for the driver there are like 16 places where that error message is printed, and I'm not about to go hacking some module code. I did put some print statements in there to see where it was failing, and it looks like it's failing at this call:
err = atc_create_hw_devs(atc);
Don't know if that helps, is anyone familiar with the actual driver?

Thanks, all. No luck, I ended up scouring the gentoo forums some more and found somebody who ran in to the exact same problem last year which I am having now. Here's the solution. It worked for me. Not ideal, but all else failed:
Today I tried again to get my soundcard working, this time with:
linux kernel 2.6.31 and the alsa ctxfi driver in it
linux kernel 2.6.31 and alsa-driver-9999 from portage
both led to the same results as before (see my postings above)
So I finally hacked the official creative xfi-driver to compile against 2.6.31. And now sound is working again for me...
If anyone else runs into the same trouble as I did, here are the changes i made:
Code:
$ diff XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00 XFiDrv_Linux_Public_US_1.00-new

[SOLVED] Can't get curl to work, among everything else

No matter what form I put curl in, I can't see to get it to work. The various manuals I've read through <man> and online have all shown me different examples, but none work.
I've tried <command> | curl -F 'sprunge=<-'http://sprunge.us' and it does... nothing.
I've tried substituting ix urls and pastebin urls but it does nothing.
I feel like a complete moron because everyone expects me to instantly understand what all this gibberish means, and no one else seems to have a problem uploading command text online.
I've had trouble every step of the way installing arch, and its taken me four hours to slug through each problem. Right now I can't start fluxbox for some reason, but I can't get the errors here except for what I write down.
Heres the error for that
Xmodmap: unable to open display ''
Error: Couldn't connect to XServer
I've tried redirecting xmodmap to the keys but it did nothing. I've tried figuring out this xserver thing but my retardation has apparently gotten in the way.
Is this normal? Does everyone feel like an 90 year old when they first jump into arch linux?

I followed the alsa archwiki, but I still couldn't get it work.
I'm a real noob.
Someone please help.

why not? i use alsamixer as root to set all "globally". and "alsactl store" after that.
egb - make also sure you added yourself to audio group.
yeah, I did that some time ago
edit: oh and I get this when I do the "alsactl store":
alsactl: save_state:1504: No soundcards found...

Can't get sound to work [SOLVED]

Hi, I'm new to arch/linux in general. Built a computer, and can't get sound to work. I ran Ubuntu for a short period of time, and sound worked there, so I'm assuming there's no hardware issue here.
I'm a little bit stuck as to what I should be doing. Help?

Start with the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ad … chitecture
If you still can't figure it out and you want help, at least post some info, instead of 'can't get it to work' (this implies that you tried something, but what?).

[SOLVED] can't get flash to work

First i tried copying the flashplayer.so to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins dir, but it didnt exists yet, so i did a searh and i found. This http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … bit_System tried installing nspluginwrapper but it didnt work after restarting firefox. Tried manually installing the flashplater.so files again, since there was a dir there. Tried pacman -S flashplugin after i found that to be the most up to date way. None of this has worked, any ideas? I installed the 10.0.42.34 version. I never restarted anything other than firefox either. Thanx for any help.

Yes, sorry about the editing, i just spent 10 minutes looking for the edit buttons and then the submit buttons, my new style made them invisible:P . I had a thought though. Before i installed gnome i had installed firefox, could i have installed a second copy while installing gnome or done something else to cause me difficulty? I like firefox but i guess i'll try getting flash to work in some other browsers and see how that goes. Also, firefox isnt detecting any plugins in its add-ons section, perhaps thats a clue?
